A major client of mine was recently shut down (without notice) because one of our major products is video streaming. Apparently that’s now against the Cloudflare’s TOS (unless, of course, we used CloudFlare’s streaming product at rates that make us unprofitable).
We left without looking back, because interrupting our primary product without notice is unacceptable in every situation (except the very, very few aggregious fringe cases).

Hi Luke, late to the show here, but agreed this should never happen. Can you reach out to me directly with the domain name you used? You can DM me at twitter.com/jplevine

I don't think you can, because Cloudflare Video CDN is a separate product. So offering it a long with your business / free package is against your business interest. Cloudflare basically tried to sell me a $1000 / month (minimum) Video CDN. But if it was a mistake and should this be able to work using Cloudflare I would happily pay to upgrade to the business plan. I can afford 20-40 USD / month not $1000

I'm not sure what our minimum plan level that allows using us for mostly video is, but it's almost certainly independent of Cloudflare Stream.
Can you clarify the problem you had with Cloudflare? It should work for this sort of use case.
